Internationalized Domain Name toolkit 2 (idnkit-2) provides useful APIs (libraries) for application developers to make softwares IDNA2008-compliant, and also provides tools for system administrators to process IDNs appropriately according to IDNA2008 specification. The idnkit-2 is a toolkit revised by JPRS from the idnkit-1.0 developed by JPNIC, and it is released as an open source free software modified to comply with IDNA2008.
idnkit-2 consists from its main part written in C and additional API packages for other languages (Java, Python, and Perl). A figure idnkit components shows positioning of idnkit-2 main part and additional API packages.
